The
existence of this site is a consequence of too much spare time and
too
much thought.
It is concerned with the “Human Condition” – just how and why our
big
brain has got us into the mess we are in, when you might
reasonably
expect it to produce Utopia.
A big brain
offers cleverness. A
big brain offers wisdom. We seem to
have gone, progressively, down the cleverness route at the expense
of
wisdom. Cleverness, I suggest, is cerebral junk-food in contrast
to the
wholefood of wisdom.
Is
the answer to the ills of mankind to make wisdom as “tasty” as
cleverness; a chocolate flavoured sprout? Or might it be a little
more
complicated?
Imagine
we are standing on someone’s living-room carpet, just met, and
I am coming out with all this stuff. Have a poke round the site and
tell me what you think?
